[AUTO-SPEC] Spec Update Supervisor — Cycle 3 Status

Date: 2026-04-15
Cycle: 3
Master SHA: 21b831e35d (fix(agents): improve label-manager permissions)

Summary

Continuing spec-vs-implementation monitoring. Master has advanced since Cycle 2. PR #9566 was closed without merge (rejected). Proposal #9756 still awaiting approval.

Current State

Previous cycle tracking: Issue #9793 (Cycle 2)
Open Spec PRs: None (PR #9566 was closed without merge)
Existing Proposal Issues:
- #9756: "Proposal [AUTO-SPEC]: Document all SubplanMergeStrategy enum values" — open, awaiting human approval

PR Status Changes Since Cycle 2

PR #9566 — REJECTED (Closed Without Merge)

Title: "[AUTO-ARCH-16] docs(spec): update prompt injection mitigation to use XML-delimited tags"
Closed at: 2026-04-15T15:46:42Z
Review: REQUEST_CHANGES from HAL9001 (missing milestone, Type/ label, changelog, CONTRIBUTORS.md, wrong commit format)
Action: Noted rejection. Will NOT re-propose XML prompt injection mitigation spec change.

New Commits Since Cycle 2 (master: `835bc580` → `21b831e3`)

21b831e3 - fix(agents): improve label-manager permissions, merge supervisor clarity, product-builder variable naming
d9e5668c - fix(skills): comprehensive final audit pass for programming-patterns skill
d33508e8 - docs(skills): expand programming-patterns SKILL.md
81b318f0 - docs(skills): expand programming-patterns SKILL.md with 17 new decision trees
98680825 - feat(skills): add exhaustive programming patterns agent skill
19664f81 - Build: Added back benchmark tests (only run after PRs into master)
777a4eae - fix(agents): make bug-hunt-pool-supervisor tracking non-blocking

Assessment: None of these commits are spec-relevant (agent skills, CI fixes, agent definition improvements).

Existing Tracked Discrepancies

1. SubplanMergeStrategy undocumented (Proposal #9756 — PENDING APPROVAL)

Spec only mentions git_three_way as default, doesn't enumerate all 4 strategies
Implementation: GIT_THREE_WAY, SEQUENTIAL_APPLY, FAIL_ON_CONFLICT, LAST_WINS
Status: Awaiting human approval on proposal #9756

2. Context Tier Thread-Safety (Proposal — NOT YET FILED)

Implementation uses threading.RLock for all tier mutations
Spec doesn't mention thread-safety model
Status: Proposal not yet filed (was planned in Cycle 2 but not completed)

3. Plugin Security Contract Violated (Bug #9818 — OPEN)

Spec explicitly forbids instantiating plugin classes during validation
Implementation's validate_protocol still instantiates klass() before structural check
Status: Bug issue #9818 filed

4. NO_COLOR Fallback Behavior (Bug #9830 — OPEN)

Spec states --format color falls back to plain when NO_COLOR is set
Implementation only respects NO_COLOR for auto-detected format, not explicit --format color
Status: Bug issue #9830 filed
